2. Get Your Dog To Keep All Paws On The Floor
As long you keep your counters clear and empty, your dog will have no reason to want to jump on them other than the fact that they feel like it. To prevent that from happening, you need to let your furry best friend know that keeping all of their paws on the floor can get them some sweet dog treats. You can change your dog’s behavior with some simple steps. For example, every time you are in the kitchen and your puppy is following you around, throw them a treat if they have all paws on the floor. They will start to assimilate this posture by receiving a reward, and, on the other hand, they will notice that they never get a treat when they are jumping around. Another useful thing you can do is to place a mat somewhere in the kitchen and train them to sit or lay there while you cook. And even when they get this trick down, it’s important to keep rewarding them, so they don’t tend to misbehave later in life.
